hi gang
had a fab time. met with everyone at bobbejean and had a blast. smooth on the way down no problems. arrived march 20th to lots of dust. no rain. vis was ok. not the clearest but could see down to bottom and up to drop off.
first dive saw a southern sting ray at welcome back. after that saw the usual a few turtles off klien, frog fish, octopus and the usual culprits.

best dive was on cliff- saw a huge cobraera with a ramorha hanging on it. a white frog fish and tons of tarpon and barracuda. was great dive

no current to speak of

restaurants. ate at a new restaurant called the boat- the name was in italian la barca. the food was very good. the vege lasgna was great and so was the fish soup. the eggplant parma was also very good. the owner is from milano italy. also tried sense again very good. went to caproccio's and was veryyyyyyy disappointed. the shrimp were so overcooked u could have bounced them off a wall.

can't wait to go back looking at tickets now
elaine

Elaine-
What a shame about Capriccio's, they're usually excellent. Perhaps an off-night one would hope.

We'll have to give The Boat a trip when we go in late June.

Thanks for the report.
